Parallelism
Parallelism may refer to: * Angle of parallelism, in hyperbolic geometry, the angle at one vertex of a right hyperbolic triangle that has two hyperparallel sides * Axial parallelism, a type of motion characteristic of a gyroscope and astronomical bodies * Conscious parallelism or also tacit parallelism, price-fixing between competitors that occurs without any communication between the parties * Parallel computing, the simultaneous execution on multiple processors of different parts of a program ** In the analysis of parallel algorithms, the maximum possible speedup of a computation * Parallel evolution, the independent emergence of a similar trait in different unrelated species * Parallel (geometry), the property of parallel lines * Parallelism (grammar), a balance of two or more similar words, phrases, or clauses * Parallelism (rhetoric), the use of similar ideas or phrases for rhetorical effect * Psychophysical parallelism, the theory that the conscious and nervous processes vary concomitantly * Parallel harmony/doubling, or harmonic parallelism, in music
